Hmm, querns, big heavy objects, wouldn't want to have to carry them an further than necessary....back to the analogy of fly-tipping fridges...
Hadn't any of the people around there heard of recycling? In my experience most IA/RB querns turn up re-used as post-packing, pivot stones, hearth bases, in drystone walls or slung up hedge-banks by plough-men, oh and of course all the ones still lying about in the quarries although I suppose they don't count?
